Zucchini Relish image

Homemade sweet relish is a great way to use up excess garden zucchini. For a more "store-bought" appearance, cut the vegetables into tiny pieces.

Categories     Canning

Time 2h50m

Yield 8 half-pints

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups diced zucchini
1 large onion, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
1 large red bell pepper, chopped
¼ cup canning salt
2 cups cider vinegar
3½ cups sugar
1 Tbsp mustard seed
1 Tbsp celery seed

Steps:

  • In a large pot combine zucchini, onion, and peppers.
  • Sprinkle with canning salt and cover with cold water. Let sit 2 hours.
  • Drain and rinse.
  • Meanwhile, in a large pot combine vinegar, sugar and seeds.
  • Bring mixture to a boil. Add vegetable mixture and stir to combine.
  • Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Ladle hot mixture into 8 half-pint jars. Adjust the two-piece caps and process in the water bath canner for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the canner and let cool. As with all pickled products, the relish will have increased flavor if allowed to sit for three weeks before using.
